Your trivial achievements?

Basically what is says on the tin. What have you done that wouldn't be earth shattering but is still something that you are proud of?

On the opposite end of the spectrum is there something you have done that you wouldn't be boasting about?

For me, my little achievement was reading both Anna Karenina and War and Peace before my 25th birthday.

On the opposite side I spent 40+ full days playing CoD:MW2 when it was released, which is slightly over 1000 hours

What are yours?

I was ranked 2nd in Ireland and was 50 places away in the world from going to Vegas and playing the top 24 FIFA players in the world to win a 10k prize.

I would have got it as well if it wasn't for exams

Got a hole in one in Links Golf 2004 once on the Xbox.

Kicked my OH's ass so much on a snowboarding game one day that he traded it in the next day for something else.

Took up baking and discovered that I'm fcuking awesome at it.

I represented Ireland in Fencing at a European Championships in Stockholm many years ago.

I had a relatively successful opening day. My second day was met with rather less success, as a result of a strong riposte the night before from a security man who ejected me from the hotel bar with considerable force, followed by a number of point in line practice sessions with a lady representing the British team.

I was given an award in school for...well for want of better words...for hanging around with the kid in the wheelchair.

God bless the teachers and their sanctimonious, patronizing, naiive, god awful attempt at political correctness. (it was during the dawn of the era of of pc)

Im sure the wheelchair guy must have known, he was in a much higher class...god bless the guy.

Im sure they also wanted to boost my precious little self esteem in a pc way, cause I was...for want of better words....not hard working, by which I mean thick.

Had there been a black kid in the school back then they would have equally shown their enlightenment...believe me.

I still have the award tucked away for when I want a cringe. (David Brent type sht, yo, bruv ... equality)
